Same setup with Diff no problems with the front of the car at all.
Setup with the shock bladders used and diff awesome difference to stock shocks car was much more responsive!!
Didnt get to try the car with the shock bladders and the one-way.
Any thoughts on the issues with the front of the car.

I run 40wt oil, small holed pistons and blue springs at the front, with the one-way installed. My shock locations are the same as you mentioned in a later post, i.e. middle on wishbone and 3rd hole from the outside on the tower.
I'm sure you realise that a front one-way should generate more steering off power relative to a diff., which would imply increased weight transfer to the loaded outside wheel. This could well be the 'digging in' you're experiencing compared to running a differential. Therefore, I would suggest you're running a little soft. Perhaps try the small holed pistons first (I found the damping wasn't sufficient with anything but these) and then possibly a thicker oil.
